Five string banjo tuning, kernel structures * http://www.alansondheim.org/ddd51.jpg http://www.alansondheim.org/sterlingbanjo0.mp3 http://www.alansondheim.org/sterlingbanjo1.mp3 * Cecil Taylor by way of linux Tuning the instrument, minor/major in banjo0 improvisation using fractal/crystalline structure strange trajectories, loosing; major in banjo1; I think - other than (for me), the amazing quality of the solos, these present the clearest examples I know of how my music is structured (since no one interviews me, I turn to self-sonic elucidation). This particular instrument turns out possibly to be unique, Tonk Brothers, Philadelphia, 1890- 1910 or so. No other examples of this one online. Enjoy. (At least I feel I'm going where others haven't, which keeps my interest, this isn't Sandy Bull.) Advertisement: The new album, Threnody, Shorter Discourses of the Buddha, should be out shortly - and just found out, that Lulu offers Azure, Nature, Digital, by myself with contributions from Sandy Baldwin, as a free download from the Lulu site!
